The fact that your point is totally irrelevant, but that you choose to consider polluting the bandwidth with your views on the illusion called "race" anyway, shows only that you are a kkk/aryan nations trained sucker, who takes the opportunity to inject your ignorant views regarding the illusion, into a memorial service for a man who has done more for the planet than the past, or next ten generations of your line can even conceive.

You cannot stand a person to whom, no matter what his skin color was, you probably still refer to using the "n-word", receiving a world-wide memorial celebration of his contributions to the world's cultural content.

This is purely your own problem, and as evidenced by the half billion people who tried to get tickets, and the outpouring of condolences from most of the rest of the planet, you are the one among a handful of almost extinct regressives who have not yet evolved to the current century.

To Hamiltongrad,

Nope not in the least.

Iran's business is theirs, as is North korea's, Hezbollah and Hamas are doing nothing different than what the US and Israel are, You cannot choose your car, because you cannot afford one, you cannot sell your home because you are too greedy, asking too much for it, and you are free to go to any doctor you can afford, and that will not change.

So no, we don't care one bit. If you do, then it is entirely your own problem.

So how many innocent people do you know are caught fleeing to the Mexican border, or searching for their wifes killer on a golf coarse?

As for "Why can't we get along?" , it's obvious... people naturally group together based upon "like" interests, beliefs as well as physical appearace. This is a survival trait at it's most base, that has served us well for thousands of years. Bear in mind that civilization as we know of it, is only a few hundred years old and we have yet to mature to the point to which these base insticts no longer rule us.

Hey Sharpton, Oprah got her start thanks to her white friend and date (Roger Ebert). Tiger Woods got where he's at not because of any special quotas or his being bi-racial, but because he deserved his place among the best in golf due to his hard work, effort and talents. And there were many many other black celebrities and talent long before the likes of Michael Jackson. I love how Sharpton and others want to revise history to conform to his pathetic view and an attempt to inform the young and uninformed about anything historical. It's also easier to spoon feed these types rather than expect them to say, read a book or do some research on historical topics, relevant or otherwise (like celebrity-dom).

The same narrow minded people who are claiming that Michael Jackson is a pedophile are the same people who claimed that O.J. Simpson was guilty. We all now that O.J. was innocent. Like that great spokesman for the black community Rodney King said: "Why can't we get along?"

Ok.... Most, not including you.

Why do you think i used the word MOST and not all?

[abcdgoldfish-2009]

I know.. people just need to let things go. People still celebrate other celebrities, even Princess Diana. I think that people should just accept that people are going to continue talking about MJ for many many years. People still talk about Elvis, and many others. He is going to be a very big person for a very long time.

Look at all the famous people (twits) scrambling to further their entertainment careers off the back of a deceased, twice-accused child molester. Now, as I recall, before his death most (by and large) of the U.S. public understood / believed Mr. Jackson to be an eccentric pedophile and generally despised him because of it.


Yes, all the celebs would have been climbing all over each other to get in on this thing.

You can not say that MOST of the U.S. believed that Michael Jackson was a pedophile. You have no way of knowing that.

I somewhat agree with above comment. OJ was not convicted and we all know what he did, at the least the ones with a brain in their head. But to cheer that they have a golden ticket, how sad. Its a funeral, not a concert (have a little respect). I may not agree with all the things Michael may have done, but I am sad that this man had to die so very young. You call yourselves fans, the true fans of Mr. Jackson would not be so happy to attend a memorial, but would be sad. I can't wait to see the sad people tomorrow cheering as they make theirselves look like fools. Just like Jesse Jackson, and Al Sharpton, the blood suckers who came out of the woodwork the minutes he died. Michael was not a racist, but those two are. And Mr. so called Father Jackson, lets see the tears (oh there are none) Your son left you out for a reason, you showed your true self again, you made money off your son, your son's dead and you promote a record after his death. Where are the true people who really loved this man (where were they to help this man) Money or not, you don't stand by and watch him die. How many star's have to die this way before their family step up and care about them. I truly felt sorry for Michael, what awful things did he grow up with to make him so very sad and to do some of the things he did. We will never know, of course many will make money off of him saying they knew him, since he can now have no voice over the lies or the truths. He is with his God, let him rest in peace and maybe for once in his life meet the only person who really loves him "faults and all". I am sure he was forgiven for any sin's he may have committed. God is all forgiving.
